U.S. forces found, targeted and killed in a Somali desert city the senior al Qaeda operative who masterminded the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Africa and had since spent a decade in hiding, The Washington Times has learned.
Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, who is one of the FBI's most-wanted terrorists, was the target of a U.S. missile strike on a residence in Dobley, a small town in southern Somalia near the Kenyan border, according to a U.S. military official who spoke to The Times on the condition of anonymity because of the nature of the operation.

This time it really is Bush’s fault (at least as far as the Muzzies and Dems are concerned).

Several U.S. military officials told The Times that the attack was carried out by Tomahawk cruise missiles, although most were unsure of whether the missile was fired from a submarine or a surface ship. THAT'S what I'm talkin' about!

Good riddance ! Just like the day when Saddam was hung ! I remember the time where I was at when it happened. I was driving from Christchurch to Dunedin NZ. I got to the Dunedin YHA, got online and the new mentioned that he was hung 2 hours earlier. Made for a happy day.
